DRAWN THROUGH A TUBE.

q Scheme for Quick Transportation
of Packages Between the Twin
Cities.
Under the provisions of the ordinance
read and referred at the council meeting on
Tuesday night. E. S. Norton and A. E.
Clark, representing the Western Pneumatic
Dispatch company, have the franchise for
the right of way for pneumatic tube for
the carrying business OH certain streets in
this city. The selection of route for this
was entrusted to the above-meDtioned gen.
tlenen. 1t is understood that the novel
devise is to commence at point on Robert
street. COUP Second street to Wabasha, up
Wabasha to University avenue, and then
go out either University or Como avenues
to probably connect with Minneapolis.
1--WE are not yet ready to give out our de-
tails to the public" suggests Mr.. Clark,
for fear something may turn up to
defeat our plans" A test has been made
of the pneumatic tube principle, and that
which G. M. johnson, of Chicago. patented
in December, 1885. is found to be big
practical success. Parcels or packages are
to be conveyed through the tube with safety
and dispatch. Mr. Clarke says a O-pound
ball can be used, and on the exhaustion

here to Minneapolis and back in an ncred-
IDLY short time. G. M. johnson is the
president of the company, f. B. Smedley
vice president, L. N. Denslow secretary
and treasurer and James Stevens mechan-
ical engineer. The scheme is to construct
a tube about two and half feet in dame
ter. made of tubular steel plate about a
sixteenth Of an inch thick. In this tube
is placed large hollow iron sphere,
in which the package can be placed. Then
by means of exhaustion by an engine the
pressure of air is lessened before the big
ball. and it starts rolling as the resistance
of the air is decreased. Air cushions and
automatic valves at the stations do away
with the danger of breakage or damage.
The stations are numbered. and electric
signals are used Indicating the numbers to
inform the operator which station is to be
its destination. A system of side switches
run the ball out of the regular tube and
lessen its speed until it stops at the air
cushion.
Just when operations will commence is
not given out. Some action may probably
be taken at meeting ten days hence. The
ordinance is referred to the council commit

DOES INSURANCE. INsUREa

A Mild Crusade Against Companies
That are Doing Business ON Pc
cuIinr M eth0ds.
There may be a little crusade against
those insurance companies which do bust
have no capital stock nor corporate powers
Yesterday case was commenced by tine
attorney general against the American Life
association, represented by E. B. Trubey
and Samuel Potts, of Minneapolis. The
relator is w. w. Churchill, of Olmsted
county, who claims that his late wife, Anna
O.. Churchill. paid fee of Sl2 to the COM
pany, for which, in case of her decease.
her surviving husband was to receive not
m ore than So, 600 life Insurance on the as
sessment plan. at the rate of SO per MEM
ber This Mr. Churchill has been unable
to collect. Information was accordingly
filed yesterday. and ali order for a writ
of quo warranto to be issued to
defendants to compel them to
show by what warrant they do business.
They have 10 deposit with the insurance
commissioner as is required by law.
Messrs. Giltilan, Belden Il Willard, at
torneys for the plaintiff in the case of the
state, the attorney general being the re-
lator, against j. H. Crotchett ct al. of the
Single Mems Endowment association, APP
peared before theS supreme court yesterday.
The case was argued and submitted. The
plan of the company, it seems according to
these lawyers, was to issue a certificate to
the applicant for membership for a period
determined by his age, with the agreement
that the applicant was to receive not more
than 1900 upon the event of his marriage
If it occurred at any time after two years
from date of membership. The APP
plicant agreed to pay an assess
ment of S1.25 upon the marriage
of each member. If he married before the
two years expired he forfeited everything
The company was never incorporated.
Now. the attorneys argue, no Insurance
contract can be valid when the party ill
sured can cause the uncertain or contingent
event to happen. upon which the payment
of insurance money depends In the case
of the Single Mems Endowment association
the insured man can certainly, deliberately
cause the event: it is not a source of loss,
but of profit and no man would 60 in with
out the expectation of being married within
a short period of the two years. A
comparison is then made with the plan of
life insurance. Judgment of custer is
asked for, and it is possible that the charter
of the association may be vacated.
